Hi there

I have used a script available on the internet for a multiple drop down box ( Country/State/City ). Once the selection is updated I would like 3 different set of result to show in box : Result could be value or text.

Using the below script I am not familiar with what function to use to return the result of the search in 3 different box

Any idea someone please ?

This needs to be posted in the Javascript forum.
